Boys + Karate = Bad News

So, I am in the kitchen when I hear a shriek followed by Logan crying. "Great" I think... what did they do this time.

Logan comes running to me and I pick him up to see if he is okay. Damion tells me that he thinks that back of Logan's head is bleeding so I lay my look at my hand (that had been holding his head) and I see that I have blood pouring down my arm and dripping off my elbow!!
So now... even though I KNOW that head wounds bleed alot... I am NOT thinking this as I start screaming for the phone and running for the paper towels!

About 3 minutes later, I have my parents on their way, Mike coming home from work, Damion FREAKING out, bloody towels EVERYWHERE, and my fingers are ready to punch 9-1-1.
Fortunately, the bleeding subsided, I was able to see that it was a small-"ish" cut (smaller than I expected), and Logan seemed to be doing fine. Well, we waited about an hour to see what it would do and it continued to ooze... not really bleed... but not totally stopped.

Off to Urgent Care! Logan ended up with three staples in the back of his skull... poor kid! And at $357.00, we figure we spent $100.00 per staple and another $57.00 on a sticker and lollipop!!

Second Grade!

Seriously? Where does the time go?

FINALLY!!!!!

So it may have taken 7 years, 3 months, and 19 days... but Damion FINALLY lost his first tooth! The thing was loose for weeks and even had another tooth growing in under it!

He was thrilled that the tooth fairy decided that not only was it worth $5.00 (first tooth ONLY fee) but, she also left him a note saying that she lets kids keep their first one instead of taking it.

Gran Jan Baseball Birthday

Gran Jan is a diehard baseball fan, so when she decided that was where she wanted to spend her birthday the boys were very excited!!

They each got foam fingers (courtesy or cousin Ethan) and Gran Jan and Thomas got their name in lights! It was a fun night.

Escape artist!

For obvious reasons, Logan still has a gate attached to his bedroom door. We have been thinking of taking it down... but it had never been an issue... so why?

Well, Logan decided to let us know in no uncertain terms that it didn't matter if we kept the gate or not... it wasn't stopping him!

And talk about STEALTH! That kid did ALL THIS... and made a landing pad on the other side; snuck downstairs and scared the bejeebees out of us... all without a sound!! Should I be scared?

Summer isn't summer...

without some quality lawnmower time with Papa!

Speech Therapist

Logan and Mrs. Tracey. He absolutley loved her and she had to move away. But we are hoping that we will be able to find someone else in his future that he works with just as well.

Quick Time Catch-up! :)

I know... I've heard it... but her they are. Some recent memories from the Younts family. Better late than never I say!
